Week 23 - Ted All Week Long!

The book Jill Bolte wrote about her experience as a neurologist and stroke survivor was really moving to me and I have since given it to 2 friends.  When I heard that she was giving a Ted Talk I was eager to listen and meet this woman.  I loved the venue and so I decided to watch or listen to one each day this week! :)  Here is the link if you want to browse: https://www.ted.com/talks?page=2 .

For my week I sampled the following:

1. My Stroke of Insight - Jill Bolte

Week 22 Movies

This weeks firsts were intended to push me out of my comfort zone.

1. I invited a friend to the Member/Guest Paddle Tennis Tournament at my club.
It was really fun but a bit unnerving. Its a round robin and we were out matched quite a bit. Still fun and you cant learn if you dont try new things!  My first time doing it in the 5 yrs I have been invited.

2. This week I went to the movies alone twice AND I went to 2 really interesting cinemas.
The Movie Tavern and the newly renovated Springfield Cinema.

The first is in Phoenixville.  I saw 50 Shades of Gray
(the really odd part was that there were only 5 other people in the theatre with me and 3 of us were alone haha) I had a salad, diet coke and watched.  BTW It was good but there wasn't any chemistry between the actors.  The book was better as usual.

I saw the 2nd film in Springfield at a newly renovated cinema that had BARCALOUNGERS! lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcalounger Now if it only had a massage feature and someone doing my pedicure... would have been nearly perfect.
